UGH! CALOMEL MAKES YOU SICK..
DON’T STAY BILIOUS, CONSTIPATED
“Dodson's Liver Tone" Will Clean Your
Sluggish Liver Better Than Calomel
and Can Hot Salivate.
'Calomel make* you sick; you lose a
'day’s work. Calomel is quicksilver and
it "salivates; calomel injures your liver.
If you are bilious; feel lazy, sluggish
and all knocked out, if your bowels are
constipated and your head aches or
stomach is sour, just take a spoonful of
harmless Dodson’s Liver Tone instead
of using sickening, salivating calomel.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liver medi
cine. You’ll know it next morning be
cause you will wake up feeling fine,
your liver will be working, your head
ache and dizziness gone, your stomach
wi]l be sweet and bowels regular. You
•will feel like working. You’ll be cheer
ful; full of energy, vigor and ambition.
Your druggist or dealer sells you a
50 cent bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone
under my personal guarantee that it
will clean your sluggish liver better than
nasty calomel; it won’t make you sick
and you can eat anything you want
without being salivated. Your druggist
guarantees that each spoonful will start
your liver, clean your bowels and
straighten you up by morning or you
get your money back. Children gladly
take Dodson’s Liver Tone because it is
pleasant tasting and doesn’t gripe or
cramp or make them sick.
I am selling millions of bottles of
Dodson’s Liver Tone to people who have
found that this pleasant, vegetable, liver
mediein-- tnkes the place of dangerous
calome ? Huy one bottle on my sound,
reliable guarantee. Ask your druggist
about me.
IF THIS BE ALL.
If this be all, and when we die. we die.
Then life is but a wanton, monstrous Ho;
And of the hapless creatures that drew breath
We. who seem flower and crown, rank far below
The least of living things that does not know
The dread of loss, the certainty of death.
If pain and sorrow are without a scheme.
Dealt out by chance, then like an evil dream
Of some dark fiend this smiling. uraeloua
earth:
If we that hunger never shall be filled.
The sooner that our empty hearts are stilled
The better for them and their achintr dearth.
Yet close, I feel, there wraps us all Around
Some mighty force, some mystery profound.
And. through any doubts and ignorance, I
trust
The power that bound with laws the moon and
tide.
And hung the stnrs in heavenly spaces wide.
Must, by their witness, be both wise and just.
Booze Figures Belied.
Macon News.
However much friends of liquor and
enemies of prohibition, State-wide or
national, may attempt to prove that
the prohibition movement has not de
creased the consumption of liquor, there
bobs up occasionally a happening which
throws more light on the matter than
does all the statistics that might be
cited in a whole decade. For while fig
ures may be deceiving, and statistics
may be so arranged as to make them
convey a false impression, there can be
no mistaking the trend of things when
breweries and distilleries all over the
country are going out of business, ad
mitting that theirs is no longer a pay
ing investment.
Two breweries and a distillery went
out of business in Philadelphia a few
weeks ago. The Alex Young Distilling
Company had been in operation ninety-
three years. The grandsons of the
founder announced in closing down that
the habit of drinking was declining so
that the business had become unprofit
able. Fred Wolf, one of the brewers,
said he was closing his business because
people were drinking less beer each
year.
“There is no money in the brewery
business and it is getting worse each
year.” he said. “The liquor business is
dying a natural death, the small brew
eries are losing money, and the profits
of the large ones are so small they are
not good investments any more.”
The other brewery to shut its doors
was the Bergdoll Brewing Company.
To hear the Wholesale Liquor Deal
ers' Association talk, to scan the sta
tistics issued from time to time by the
friends of the liquor business, one is led
to believe that prohibition has increased
rather than diminished the consump
tion of liquor in the United States. It
must be rather disconcerting to these
men, therefore, to have concerns among
the oldest in the country to quit busi
ness because they cun no longer make
it pay. It proves that in spite of the
liquorites’ best efforts the consumption
of liquor is not only falling off, but that
this dropping away has already reached
very considerable proportions.
“De ’Liminator Got Busted.”
Two men were in the, dining car
ordering breakfast. The first one said
to the waiter:
“George, you may bring me two
fried eggs, some broiled Virginia ham,
a pot of coffee and some rolls.”
“Yassah.”
The other said:
"You may bring me the same.”
“Yassah.”
The second man then called after the
waiter, and remarked:
“Just eliminate the eggs.”
“Yassah.”
In a moment the waiter came back.
“Scuse me, boss, but jes what’d you-
all say about dem nigs?”
“I said.just eliminate the eggs.”
“Yassah,” and he hurried again to the
tiny kitchen.
In another moment he came back
once more, leaned confidentially and
penitently over the table, and said:
“We had a bad accident jest afo’ we
ief de depot dis mornin’, boss, an’ de
'liminator done got busted off, right at
de handle. Will yo’ take ’em fried
same as dis hyar gem’man?”
One of the spears carried to Harper’s
Ferry by John Brown and his troops in
1859 for the purpose of arming the
slaves preparatory to their contem
plated fight for freedom was turned
over to the New Jersey State House
Commission by Henry Lawton, a vet
eran of the Civil War, and will be
placed in the State museum. Follow
ing the arrest of Brown and the dis
persal of hiB band the spears were con
fiscated. A few stray ones were left,
however, and one of these was pre
sented to Lawton by a Southern family
whose friendship he won during the
war.
Cure for Cholera Morbus.
“When our little boy, now seven
years old, was a baby he was cured of
cholera morbus by Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,”
writes Mrs. Sidney Simmons, Fair
Haven, N. Y. “Since then other
members of my family have used this
valuable medicine for colic and bowel
troubles with good satisfaction and I
gladly indorse it as a remedy of ex
ceptional merit.”
Jointed Snake Signals Like a
Locomotive.
Lamed, Kan., July 25. —Enoch Chase
had a peculiar experience while taking
the logs out of the old dug-out on Mel
Hicks’ place. He ran across a jointed
snake down between the logs and hit it
with his spade. Every joint Hew apart
and started to wiggle off.
Enoch, just for a joke, picked up one
of the joints anil put it in a bucket,
and then slipped behind the logs and
waited to see what would happen. In
about ten minutes he heard a sort of
low whistle, and then a rustling. The
head of the jointed snake came out of
the weeds and looked around. It made
a peculiar whistle and another joint
backed up and fastened on to the head.
The head whistled twice and joint No.
2 came out, and so on, so many whistles
for each joint, until it came time for
the one Enoch had in the bucket. At
its call the thing thrashed around in
the bucket like all possessed, but
couldn't get out. Of course, without
the joint that fit, the snake couldn’t
get together.
Enoch said the last he saw of it the
head had taken charge of one-half and
the tail the rest and had gone off in
ditferent directions to hunt up the miss
ing joint. Enoch got almost home with
his joint when an automobile tooted
down the road. This either scared the
joint or it was its coupling-on signal,
for Enoch sayB it managed to Hop out
of thq bucket and get away in the tall
grass. _
The genuine, unadulterated, 99 7-8
per cent, pure Mexican Boll Weevil is
right now in our midst. He is here
with his entire family, and he is going
to stay just as long as accommodating
farmers will plant cotton for him to
feed upon. Now that the weevil is
actually here in quantities and has al
ready begun doing considerable dam
age, it is not going to help matters to
try to conceal the fact that we have
him, and it will materially hurt mat
ters for our farmers to get excited and
discouraged. Take it coolly. Let us
all get together and devise the best
ways and means to farm profitably
without depending on cotton. It can
bo done, because other StateB that
have been swept by the boll weevil
have proved that it can bo done.—Ba

What Increase in Paper Prices
Means to Publishera.
Although every newspaper publisher
and printer has long since realized that
paper of every kind and quality haB in
creased in price, there are some of the
former accustomed to purchasing their
news print stock in small lots who have
not realized just what the increase has
meant.
Print paper prices are quoted by the
mills and dealers at pound or ton rates,
and from $2.50 per 100 pounds, or 2}
cents per pound, have steadily mounted
upward, until to-day publishers are
forced to pay from $4.75 to $0 per 100
pounds, depending upon the size of the
order, an increase ranging around 100
per cent.
News print paper in the Bix-column
quarto size weighs 24 pounds to the
quire, and when it was purchased at
the 24 cent per pound price cost the
buyer 61 cents per quire. Now pub
lishers are obliged to pay for the same
size 4} to 6 cents per pound, equiva
lent to 12 cents to 15 cents per quire.
This increase in the cost of paper is
cutting deeply into the profits of the
publisher who is not meeting condi
tions by raising his subscription rate,
advertising and job prices.

gaged in agricultural pursuits.
